Totally agree. It's riveting to watch and so emotionally resonant. Masterful.

It is. Not only because its so well written but because the performances are so believable. I wonder how much of real life got into the characters too.

I had no idea they were together in real life until after the show was over. I saw an interview where he talked about not needing to act during a couple of scenes.

Most of the way through season 4 now. I felt sorry for Nina most of this season, now I don't need to anymore......now I'm left just feeling bad for Martha - such a sad character.
